Still stunned from what has to be the best most positive summer update ever. :love: So much to take in, so many questions...! Curious to know if...
I will watch the prerecorded stream “live” (yay thanks home-working) but refuse to get drawn in by the hype, largely created by ourselves lol....
Believe me the PS5 suffers badly compared to the XSX. The tile loading type of stuttering is unfortunately present on all platforms, but on top of...
It always was 2pm UK time. It is advertised as 1 pm UTC, which is therefore 2 pm BST, and 3 pm on the continent (CEST).
Really curious to know what feature or features justify the TSW4 tag (or are DTG having us on). Guess we’ll find out soon enough!
Exclusive content might be an incentive if it ever were to happen, but DTG have never done that due to the impracticalities.
There can surely only be one real incentive for preordering TSW - reduced price! I can’t honestly think of any other reason why people would bother.
Nice one matey. Sorry I mistook you for a foreigner, it’s just a common mistake that non-native English speakers make. No offence meant. ;)
The French use “La Californie” for starters (although that particular phrase would use “en Californie”), but I would venture that most languages...
Absolutely. This has to be a core issue (old or obsolete audio API?) because they eventually found a workaround for the jackhammer audio issues in...
Another “die-hard” here who was bred on a diet of BR blue. For me TSW is a driving game but also a time machine which can whisk me back to days...
Impressive. When I go down the hill the dynamics’ effectiveness seems to drop off a cliff above 25 mph. What psi do you set the train brakes at?
Not too worried about the routes, they will probably be the usual mix of “good choice”, “meh”, and “what the f…?”. I am very interested to know...
In the past there were yards, industries, and pickup goods but today it's all about the scenery. As you say the modern S&C is a pretty A-B run...
Would be well up for a West Highland Line route, but although I love 37s, we really need new stock types. So back in time with a nice class 27...
This word, originally meaning a fortress or citadel, also came over to old English from old German via the anglo-saxons, and still exists today as...
Not sure they would sell many as most will be only demi-baguettes and often underbaked. ;)
The single biggest improvement they could make for the community (given that a public editor will never happen) would be an all-new Scenario...
We’ll stump up and buy you a coffee if you share a screenshot of your PC desktop ;)
Still harbouring a secret hope that Microsoft bounce back on the scene with an all-new MSTS 2024, that would really light a fire under...
Yep, less than 2 weeks away and no teasers, which does take some of the fun of the build up away, so I do hope we'll start seeing some in the days...
Just grabbed the latest ini's, thanks again for the much-improved lighting.
Everyone’s a director of this or manager of that these days. Even the cleaning lady is Director and Senior Vice President of Hygiene and Sanitation.
Agreed, and yet, they are not selling locomotives, but have just taken a leaf out of the DTG book of recycling to death existing stock, and...
In TSW2 as mentioned. The TSW3 issue is entirely different although possibly related.
If a new iteration of TSW (v4) really is coming next month, one would hope the Xbox audio quality issues will have been sorted out for good, and...
Nice to see people moving to gen 9. PS5 works great with older, less taxing routes, but can be a bit choppy with newer offerings. Still a massive...
Would have honestly preferred to have seen a new locomotive type for the price.
That’s a whole different kettle of fish, with recent PC games releasing in a poorly optimised state, with shader compilation stutters abounding....
Console owners don’t always get it easy, look how long it took to fix the 64gb dlc limit on PS5, and how long it took to fix the Xbox jackhammer...
Don’t listen to stuff whilst driving trains, but it’s nice to have a bottle of single malt handy for those US freight runs as they can be somewhat...
Train Sim World - Episode 4: A New Hope
Agreed, the RailPass idea would be abhorrent to most people including myself, but there may be a minority who are starting out on the TSW journey...
What would players think if they proposed the “Dovetail RailPass” at £9.99 per month and you get all DLC included? :o
A bit disappointed we have no teasers to whet our collective appetites and keep us guessing. Come on DTG JD, no “guess the location” or clever...
Indeed you would do well to steer clear of TSW3 on Xbox! Although the frame rate is generally a lot smoother than on PS5, the audio quality issues...
Fantastic job Jetwash, I use the Ultra which gives a nice balance between quality and fps.
Thanks Rob, I downloaded the latest feedback file but don't see "TS2Prototype-shinierrailhead.pak" in the zip file unfortunately.
Very much enjoying the EP, but the top of rails seem to have lost their sheen; is there any way to bring this back?
Playing devil’s advocate here, but if DTG dropped gen 8 for TSW4 onwards, players would still be able to play and buy routes for TSW3 and prior....
Yep, JD may send round a couple of well-built DTG “representatives” with baseball bats to remind you of your NDA obligations! :D
The ECML finally lost its soul on 2nd January 1982, but I’ll take whatever they bring to the table. Anything short of Peterborough would be a wee...
Hi DTG Matt, a minor point, but I would like to see the collectables totals fixed on SEHS which have been broken since TSW3's route extension....
Sounds very interesting Jetwash, look forward to seeing these. Keep up the great work everyone!
Presumably the EP will be released sometime this weekend given the previous posts?
Thanks for all your work guys, very much looking forward to this.
Optimising in the sense of using the PS5 hardware and software features to improve the player experience. In addition, using dynamic resolution...
Been preaching the same for months when I had both. The consoles need TSW performance optimisation especially the PS5. Try also timing the loading...
Hopefully the upcoming Ps5 Pro will negate most if not all of the current TSW deficit between PS5 and Series X. Obviously even future consoles...
There’s been a little too much recycling rather than extending the library of existing rolling stock, and I would really like to see more...
